Since I am using a Levitt house, I tried to get the correct size of the house. I found out the Levitt houses varied from 600-800ft squared (obviously I converted it to mm). I then made a plane about that size and applied an image to the plane. I used a box and extruded the faces around the house's walls which created the walls. I then extruded the walls upwards to the actual height of a ceiling which is about 3180mm from what I found out. I then placed the floor using the line tool to trace around the outer walls about 152.4 mm (which is about 6 inches) from the ground as that how High the floor in a house is to the concrete.
Once I had modelled the exterior walls, I then added lines going down (for the wooded planks). I then extruded the lines outwards and inwards to create the pattern in the image below.
Once I had created the planks, I then needed to unwrap the model and which so I could line the wooden plank texture up with the planks I had modelled, So I created the seams and quick pealed each wall. Then I lined up the UVs to the texture ant stitched the walls UV back together as seen in the image below. I only unwrapped the walls which will be seen in the final animation.
